COURT.
The Grand Jury Finishes Its Work and
is Discharged.

Court convened at the usual hour yes
terday morning. Chief Justice Maginnis
presiding.
Yesterday proved to be an of day"
again in several respects, but principally
because IN the criminal case which was to
have been tried yesterday the defendant
pleaded guilty to petit larceny, and thus
the case did not have to be tried.
There were some little matters attended
to during the forenoon, but nothing of
very special Importance. The grand jury.
however, was hard at work aud one addi-
tional indictment was brought in and will
be heard from in due time.
In the case of the Territoryof Wyoming
VS.. Thomas Kane, No. 100, a noHe pros
was entered, and it is probable that he
will plead guilty to the remaining indict-
ment against him

and became a full fedged American citi-
zen.

man, indictment for grand larceny. In
this case the defendant withdrew his plea
of not guilty and pleaded guilty to petit
larceny. He has not as yet been sentenced.
In the case of the Territory of Wyoming
VS.. George Patrick, the defendant was
arraigned and pleaded not guilty.
In the afternoon the grand jury came
into court and presented its final report,
after which the jury was discharged from
further service BY the court.
The final report of the Jury, which was
signed by Geo. Baxter. foreman, states
that the jury have, IN accordance with
the instructions of the court, Investigated
violations of the law, ETC., that they have
investigated the Offices and other rooms in
the court house, and find them too small
for the present needs of the county, and
recommend an immediate enlargement of
the building. They also visited the cou nty
Jail and find that the same is kept in good
condition and that the prisoners are well
fed, ETC., but recommend that it also be
enlarged and made more commodious.
The thanks of the grand jury are re-
turned to the court and all officers assist
ing them in their investigations.
Court adjourned until 9 o'clock this
morning.

Buffalo Bill is the great artist" at
present, even Mr.. Irving, when they are
together, as is frequently the case, being
comparatively in the shade. There is one
good story about Buffalo Bill. Some
years ago he wrote a book about his ad-
ventures. A cowboy whose hero he was,
asked a friend to get the book for him.
The friend gave him a Bible instead. The
cowboy, not being able to read, did not
detect the fraud, and for a long time
could get no one to read the book to him.
At last he caught a stranger who had book
learning. This man saw how the cowboy
had been done" and did him still
further by reading about Daniel in the
den of lions, merely substituting the name
Buffalo Bill for Daniel. The cowboy was
in raptures. All" he said proudly, II
knew Bill would be too much for them
lions. "-London Letter.

sacks and are anxious to make tracks for
home. When they can get away, how
ever, Is a matter of speculation. The IA.

entirely inadequate to the handling OF
large gatherings of people and thousands
of veterans ard other visitors who ex-
,pected to be home on this morning are
still held Involuntary and unwilling pris-
oners. The baggage department. too,
has given out under the crush and depot
platforms, freight and storage houses
are packed with y MISCELLANEOUS assort-
msnt of baggage that it has been found
impossible to deliver. People without
number, many OF whom arrived as early
as Sunday, have been utterly unable to
get track of their possessions, and after
remaining for days without a change af
clothing have been glad to get away, and
trust: to luck and the possession of their
checks TO recover possession OF their prop
erty at some distant day. The condition
of affairs Mt the depot since Monday
morning has been n of chaos, and the
experiences encountered by the great
majority CT those who have managed to
getaway Will remain a memory with
them to the end Of their days.
